Grafjammer - Schalm & Schabauw

Marcel H. : Blackened combo Grafjammer from Utrecht, the Netherlands, who sing in Dutch is back at the front of it all with their second full-length album. Somehow I missed out on 2015’s ‘Koud Gemaakt’. That damage has now been repaired more than enough in the form of ‘Schalm & Schabauw. The album delivers some unaltered Netherblack. The vocals remind me, more than once, of those of those of Countess, who also sing in Dutch. However, musically Grafjammer is a couple of leagues ahead of that band. The black ‘n’ roll the band plays immediately sticks. Just after one spin you’ll dance to it without abandon and gurgle along to it. Tasty album ‘Schalm & Schabauw’. The release show of the album will take place on Saturday February 10th at dB’s in Utrecht, the Netherlands where French act Merrimack will also be playing.
